선행연구에서 라이코펜이 HT-29세포의 증식을 억제하는 것을 관찰하였기 때문에 본 연구는 그 기전을 연구하기 위하여 수행되 었다. 라이코펜이 HT-29 세포의 사멸을 유도하는지 조사하기 위해서 여러 농도의 라이코펜이 포함된 배지에서 세포를 4일 동안 배양하였다. 라이코펜 농도의 증가에 따라 사멸되는 세포에서 나타나는 특징의 하나인 DNA fragmentation이 증가하는 것을 관찰하였다. Western blot을 수행하여 얻은 결과에 의하면 라이코펜이 IGF-IR, IRS-1, PI3K, Akt와 같은 IGF-IR pathway에 속하는 단백질의 수준을 감소시켰다. IGF-IR의 인산화를 유도하기 위해서 라이코펜이 포함된 배지에서 세포를 배양하고 IGF-I을 첨가하여 0, 5, 10, 60분간 배양한 다음 IGF-IR antibody를 이용하여 immunoprecipitation을 수행하였다. 라이코펜은 IGF-I에 의한 IGF-IR, IRS-1의 인산화와 IGF-IR와 PI3K의 결합을 감소하고 인산화된 Akt를 감소시켰다. 이와 같은 IGF-IR signaling의 억제는 이 대장암세포에 존재하는 IGF-II의 autocrine loop을 억제하는 원인이 될 수 있어, 라이코펜의 암세포증식을 억제하는 기전 중의 하나가 될 수 있다. 라이코펜은 토마토와 그 가공품에 많이 존재하는 물질로 자연적인 식사를 통해 많이 섭취할 수 있는 물질이다. 라이코펜의 항암 기전을 밝혀냄으로써 미래 암예방과 치료를 위한 중요한 기능성 영양소를 생산할 수 있는 기초를 마련해줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Background: To investigate the expression of insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR) and sushi domain containing protein 3 (SUSD3) in breast cancer tissue, and analyze their relationship with clinical parameters and the correlation between the two proteins. Materials and Methods: The expression of IGF-IR and SUSD3 in 100 cases of breast cancer tissues and adjacent normal breast tissues after surgery was detected by immunohistochemical technique MaxVisionTM, and the relationship with clinical pathological features was further analyzed. Results: The positive rate of IGF-IR protein was 86.0% in breast cancer, higher than 3.0% in adjacent normal breast tissue (P<0.05). The positive expression rate of SUSD3 protein was 78.0% in breast cancer, higher than 2.0% in adjacent normal breast tissue (P<0.05). The expression of IGF-IR and SUSD3 was related to estrogen receptor and pathological types (P<0.05),but not with age, stage, the expression of HER-2 and Ki-67 (P>0. 05). The expression of IGF-IR and SUSD3 in breast cancer tissue was positively related (r=0.553, P<0.01). Conclusions: The expression of IGF-IR and SUSD3 may be correlated to the occurrence and development of breast cancer. The combined detection of IGF-IR, SUSD3 and ER may play an important role in judging prognosis and guiding adjuvant therapy after surgery of breast cancer.

연구배경: 세포성장은 세포증식과 세포죽음의 균형에 의해 이루어 진다. 세포성장에 관여하는 여러 growth factor증 IGF-I은 IGF-IR와 결합하여 세포증식을 유발하는 mitogen으로 알려져 있다. 또한 IGF-I에 결합하는 IGFBPs중에 IGFBP-3는 혈액내에 가장 많은 carrier protein으로, IGF-I과 결합하여 IGF-I의 세포증식 효과를 증가 혹은 억제시킨다. 방 법: 3T3 fibroblast 세포를 이용하여 IGF-I과 IGF-IR transcripts를 northern blot으로 확인하고, IGF-I에 의한 mitogenic effect를 MTT assay 및 $^3H$-thymidine incorporation test로 관찰하고, IGF-I의 receptor인 IGF-IR의 활성화를 보기 위해 intracellular $\beta$-subunit의 tyrosine kinase domain의 phosphorylation을 western blot으로 관찰하였다. 또한 IGFBP-3가 3T3 세포에서 mitogenic effect에 미치는 영향을 보기 위해 anti-IGFBP-3와 ${\alpha}IR_3$을 단독 및 병용투여하여 관찰하였다. 결 과: 3T3 세포는 IGF-I와 IGF-IR의 mRNA expression을 보였으며, IGF-I을 투여시 IGF-IR의 intracelluar cytoplasmic protein인 $\beta$-subunit의 tyrosine kinase domain을 phosphorylation시켜 활성화시키며, 5%, 1% serum-containing media에서 세포증식을 보였으나, serum-free media에서는 세포증식을 보이지 않았다. 또한 anti-IGFBP-3 투여와 ${\alpha}IR_3$과 anti-IGFBP-3를 병용투여시는 세포종식이 각각 2배이상 증가하였으나, ${\alpha}IR_3$을 4시간 전처치후 ${\alpha}IR_3$과 anti-IGFBP-3를 병용투여시는 anti-IGFBP-3에 의한 세포종식이 보이지 않은 것으로 보아 IGF -I/IGFBP-3 결합에서 분리되는 free IGF-I어l 의해 세포증식이 유도된 것으로 생각된다. 결 론: IGF-I은 IGF-IR를 phosphorylation시켜 mitogenic effect를 보이며, IGFBP-3는 IGF-I의 mitogenic effect를 억제하는 것으로 생각된다.

Nutrient availability may control muscle growth directly and indirectly through its influence on regulatory factors. We analyzed the effects of nutrient availability on the breast muscle insulin-like growth factor system. Real time RT-PCR was used to quantify the level of transcription in breast muscle from Langshan (LS) layer and Arbor Acres (AA) broiler chickens subjected to different feeding regimens during embryonic and postnatal development. The AA chickens were fed AA diet (AA, control group) while the LS chickens were either fed LS diet (LL) or AA diet (LA). According to our results, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-II (embryonic day 16 (E16) - postnatal day 42 (P42)), IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR, E18-P42), and IGF binding protein (IGFBP)-2 (E18-P42), -5 (E16-P14), -7 (E12-P0), and -3 (E12-P0) were positively correlated with IGF-I, while IGFBP-3 (P0-P28) was negatively correlated with IGF-I. In comparison, IGF-IR (E18-P42), IGFBP-2 (E18-P42), IGFBP-5 (E14-P0), and IGFBP-3 (E16-P0) were positively correlated with IGF-II, while IGF-IR (E10-E16) and IGFBP-3 (P0-P28) were negatively correlated with IGF-II. Moreover, IGFBP-2 (E16-P42), -7 (E10-E16), and -3 (E10-E16) were positively correlated with IGF-IR, while IGFBP-3 (P0-P28) was negatively correlated with IGF-IR. Finally, IGFBP-7 (E12-P0) was positively correlated with IGFBP-3, while IGFBP-2 (P0-P28) and -7 (P0-P42) were negatively correlated with IGFBP-3. Overall, the AA chickens exhibited higher levels of IGF-I, IGF-IR, and IGFBP-2 mRNA expression than the LL chickens, while the opposite was true for IGFBP-7. No strain differences in IGF-I, IGF-IR, and IGFBP-7 mRNA expression were detected between LA and AA chickens; however, a strain difference was observed for IGFBP-2. LA chickens exhibited higher levels of IGFBP-2 than LL chickens, while the opposite was true for IGFBP-7. Our data show the first evidence that certain genes may be correlated during specific developmental periods and that strain differences in the expression of those genes in LS and AA chickens are due to differential responses to the same diet.

A total of 60 one-day-old Yellow-feather broiler chickens were allotted into treatment and control groups. The treatment group was fed with the diet supplemented with 3% conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) for 48 d, while control group was fed with the diet supplemented with 3% rapeseed oil. Chickens were slaughtered in each group at the age of 49 d, and the blood and the abdominal adipose tissue were sampled. Serum cLeptin and serum cAdiponectin were measured by ELISA. The total RNA was extracted from adipose tissue to measure the abundance of the chicken growth hormone receptor (cGHR), insulin-like growth factor 1 (cIGF-1), insulin-like growth factor I receptor (cIGF-IR), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma ($cPPAR{\gamma}$), cAdiponectin and cAdipoIR mRNA by RT-PCR using ${\beta}$-actin as an internal standard. Results showed that the CLA decreased the abdominal fat index by 20.93% (p<0.05). The level of serum cLeptin but not serum cAdiponectin was significantly increased by CLA treatment (p<0.05). CLA down-regulated the relative abundance of cGH-R mRNA and $cPPAR{\gamma}$ mRNA in abdominal adipose tissue by 24.74% (p<0.05) and 66.52% (p<0.01) respectively. However, no differences were found between CLA treatment group and control group (p>0.05) in the relative abundance of cIGF-1, cIGF-IR, cAdiponectin, and cAdipoIR mRNA in abdominal adipose tissue. The data suggested that CLA inhibited abdominal fat deposition in broiler chicken may be determined by decreasing the GHR available for GH, and by inhibiting the differentiation of preadipocytes via down-regulation of $PPAR{\gamma}$, but independent of IGF and (or) GH-IGF pathway or adiponectin action.

The purposes of this study were to evaluate the effects of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)s in peritoneal fluid (PF) from patients with and without endometriosis on the proliferation of endometrial stromal cells and to investigate the effects of type I IGF receptor antibody on the response of endometrial stromal cells to PF from patients with endometriosis. IGFs in PF from patients with endometriosis (n=14) and without endometriosis (n=10) were measured by immunoradiometric assay and PF samples were divided into low IGF-I PF group (less than 85 ng/ml) and high IGF-I PF group (more than 85 ng/ml). Endometrial stromal cells from patients without endometriosis were cultured in serum free media in the presence or absence of 1 % PF and thymidine incorporation test were used to evaluate the proliferation of endometrial stromal cells. Also cultures were incubated with type I IGF receptor monoclonal antibody (${\alpha}IR_3$) before adding PF. PF from patients with endometriosis and without endometriosis increased thymidine incorporation in endometrial stromal cells. In patients with endometriosis, high IGF-I PF group had high IGF-II levels and resulted in higher thymidine incorporation than low IGF-I PF group but no significant difference in increase in thymidine incorporation between high IGF-I and low IGF-I PF group was noted in patients without endometriosis. There was not a significant correlation between increase in thymidine incorporation and IGF-I levels in PF from patients without endometriosis but in PF from patients with endometriosis. Preincubation with ${\alpha}IR_3$ significantly inhibited the mitogenic response of endometrial stromal cells to PF. Our data indicate that IGF-I in PF may be involved in the growth of ectopic endometrium in patients with endometriosis.

Background: The insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) is the primary docking molecule for the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR), and is required for activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K) pathway. IRS-1 activation of the (PI3K) pathway regulates IGF-mediated survival, enhancement of cellular motility and apoptosis. Therefore, we attempted to ascertain whether IRS-1 genetic variations affect an individual's risk for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Two-hundred and eighteen subjects, either diagnosed with NSCLC or control subjects, were matched by age, gender and smoking status. Genomic DNA from each subject was amplified by PCR and analyzed according to the restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) profile to detect the IRS-1 G972R polymorphism. Results: The frequencies of each polymorphic variation, in the control population, were as follows: GG=103 (94.5%) and GR=6 (5.5%); for the NSCLC subjects, the genotypic frequencies were as follows: GG=106 (97.2%) and GR=3 (2.8%). We could not demonstrate statistically significant differences in the genotypic distribution between the NSCLC and the control subjects (p=0.499, Fisher's Exact test). The relative risk of NSCLC, associated with the IRS-1 G972R polymorphic variation, was 1.028 (95% CI; 0.63~9.90). In addition, we found no differences between polymorphic variants with regard to the histological subtype of NSCLC. Conclusion: We did not observe any noteworthy differences in the frequency of the IRS-1 G972R polymorphism in NSCLC patients, compared to control subjects. These results suggest suggesting that, in our study population, the IRS-1 G972R polymorphism does may not appear to be associated with an increased risk of NSCLC.
